Lizzie Miller and 6 Other Plus-Size Models Get Nude for Glamour

If you haven't seen the new issue of Glamour yet, do yourself a favor and pick it up. What's inside? Responding to the late Lizzie Miller hullabaloo—which erupted in response to a 3 x 3 un-airbrushed photo of the plus-size model showing a bit of untucked tummy in Glamour's September issue—the fashion mag went all out. In their November issue (the one with Scarlett Johansson on the cover!), on newsstands now, they're featuring a multi-page spread of seven in-the-buff plus-size models! Models include: Crystal Renn (the highest-paid plus-size model in America and author of Hungry), Kate Dillon (at 35, she's the oldest of the women featured), Ashley Graham, Amy Lemons, Anansa Sims (daughter of model Beverly Johnson), Jennie Runk and Lizzie Miller. I just took a look and the photos and the models are drop-dead gorgeous!

Food for thought: Other magazines (e.g. Mode) that have attempted to cater to plus size women haven't done well. Will Glamour's assertion to start including models of all sizes in their magazine last? Or is this just a smart response to a momentary craze that will eventually die? Do tell.
